Panoramic 6

O.K. here is my latest installment in my Panoramic series. It is not the best one that I have done but I really like it. This image once I stitched it together measures just over 11" high by just over 85" long. I would love to print this image to see it but it would be over 7 feet long so I probably won't print it. I was in a very big hurry when I shot this and I didn't have a tripod so I had to hand hold the camera for 9 exposures. Since I was in a hurry I neglected to hold the camera in a vertical position. This would have allowed the image to be taller but it would then have added probably at least another 6 exposures to get this view. Anyway if you look at this image at full resolution you can see a couple of places that the stitching is not perfect, but I only spent about 30 minutes on this image and I will probably not spend any more time as I don't intend to print it. I did want to share it with my blog viewers, I hope you like it. Oh yeah, this is the Cumberland Gap and you are actually looking at 3 different states in this image. Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky. Most of what you are seeing is Tennessee to the left of the image is Virginia and to the right is Kentucky. I was standing in Virginia when I shot this image. As we walked back to the car we came across the Virginia/Kentucky state line. My girls were excited to be able to stand in 2 states at the same time.
